About GroundedAI

GroundedAI is a Vancouver-based technology company building modern software for underground construction, tunnelling, and mining. We work directly with contractors, consultants, and owners to bring real-time, field-first data into daily operations improving visibility, decision-making, and project outcomes underground.

Our platform combines intuitive field workflows with advanced analytics to help teams better capture, understand, and act on geotechnical and geological information.

As a growing startup, we value curiosity, ownership, and clear communication. Our team works closely with customers across North America, and every role has a direct impact on both the product and the business. If you’re excited about tunnelling, technology, and shaping how work gets done underground, you’ll feel at home here.

About the Role

We’re looking for a Tunnel Engineer who is excited to work at the intersection of engineering, customers, and product. This role is ideal for someone with early-career tunnel engineering experience who is highly personable, organized, curious, and eager to learn fast in a startup technology environment.

You’ll work directly with tunnelling teams in the field, help customers make the most of our technology, bring real-world tunnel insights back into the product, and represent the company at industry events. You’ll also have the opportunity to gain exposure to mining projects, expanding your technical breadth beyond tunnelling and construction.

This is a hands-on, outward-facing role with significant room to grow.

The position is a hybrid role, with an office in Mount Pleasant, flexibility to work remote, and approximately 25% travel.
